bamboo

Last year around this time Emma and I went looking for the bamboo forest and we couldnt find it. A bunch of my friends have told me about it in the past, and I've been really eager to check it out. Then just about a week ago, a classmate of mine told me that she actually lived on that block. So I asked her how to get there and then went there with Emma on her birthday. The whole place is really interesting and you would never know its there. Once you walk through a small entrance to get inside of the bambooed area, you start to just feel a different vibe.A canopy covers the top portion of the area and only small bits of light shine through the bamboo so I broke out my my external flashes to get these shots. I shot them on f4 and 1/200th. I hope you like them.
